Crane: Cloud Resource Analytics and Economics

Go Report Card GoDoc License GoVersion

Crane logo

Crane (FinOps Crane) is a cloud native open source project which manages cloud resources on Kubernetes stack, it is inspired by FinOps concepts.

Introduction

The goal of Crane is to provide a one-stop-shop project to help Kubernetes users to save cloud resource usage with a rich set of functionalities:

  • Time Series Prediction based on monitoring data
  • Usage and Cost visibility
  • Usage & Cost Optimization including:
    • R2 (Resource Re-allocation)
    • R3 (Request & Replicas Recommendation)
    • Effective Pod Autoscaling (Effective Horizontal & Vertical Pod Autoscaling)
    • Cost Optimization
  • Enhanced QoS based on Pod PriorityClass

Crane Overview

Features

Time Series Prediction

Crane predictor fetches metric data, and then outputs the prediction results. The prediction result can be consumed by other crane components, like EHPA and Analytics.

Please see this document to learn more.

Effective HorizontalPodAutoscaler

EffectiveHorizontalPodAutoscaler helps you manage application scaling in an easy way. It is compatible with native HorizontalPodAutoscaler but extends more features.

Please see this document to learn more.

Analytics

Analytics model analyzes the workload and provide recommendations about resource optimize.

Two Recommendations are currently supported:

  • ResourceRecommend: Recommend container requests & limit resources based on historic metrics.
  • Effective HPARecommend: Recommend which workloads are suitable for autoscaling and provide optimized configurations such as minReplicas, maxReplicas.

QoS Ensurance

Repositories

Crane is composed of the following components:

  • craned. - main crane control plane.
    • Predictor - Predicts resources metrics trends based on historical data.
    • AnalyticsController - Analyzes resources and generate related recommendations.
    • RecommendationController - Recommend Pod resource requests and autoscaler.
    • NodeResourceController - Re-allocate node resource based on prediction result.
    • EffectiveHPAController - Effective HPA based on prediction result.
  • metric-adaptor. - Metric server for driving the scaling.
  • crane-agent. - Ensure critical workloads SLO based on abnormally detection.
  • gocrane/api. This repository defines component-level APIs for the Crane platform.
  • gocrane/fadvisor Financial advisor which collect resource prices from cloud API.
